comp.security.unix


  Discussion of Unix security.

  An newsgroup for the discussion of computer security topics that are 
  directly relevant to the various flavors of Unix.  Sample topics of 
  discussion include (but are not limited to) Unix security tools and 
  packages, differences in security features and relative strengths among 
  the various Unix's, pros and cons of running various network services, 
  etc.  Posting security related source code is sometimes OK, 
  but substantial packages should normally be posted to one of the 
  available source code groups.
